Since it is currently almost impossible to talk about the novelties LEGO Star Wars expected for September 4 without getting slapped on the fingers and there is no reason that fans of the LEGO Star Wars range should be the only ones to breaking the bank to acquire exclusive and overpriced sets, here is a little off topic and something to make fans of the LEGO Architecture range dream.

The Hilton Paris Opera hotel is currently marketing the exclusive set above, which contains a LEGO reproduction of the building in question. This pretty box is sold for the modest sum of 329 € and it contains 2503 pieces.

The hotel is currently receiving, and until September 6, works by LEGO® Certified Professional Builder Belgian Dirk Denoyelle and this set is a scaled-down version of one of his many creations on display for the occasion.

To offer you this beautiful box that may one day be missing from your collection if you do not do so, you must write to the following email address: parisopera.info@hilton.com.

If you like the LEGO Architecture range but are satisfied with the "official" sets, know that the set 21024 Louvre will be available from September 1st at a price of 59.99 € and that 2016 reserves us at least four new references that will make us travel to Italy (21026 Venice), in Germany (21027 Berlin / Germany), to USA (21028 New York City) and Dubai (21031 Burj Khalifa).

Take note, the weekend of September 12 and 13, the little world of LEGO will meet in Diémoz (38) for an exhibition 100% devoted to the small brick which promises to be nice with many creations, animations, competitions, etc. .. To know everything about what to prepare, go on the facebook page of the exhibition.

Speaking of competitions, here is one that I offer in partnership with the organizers of the exhibition.

It is open to everyone, young and old, with three categories: Children under 8, children 8 to 14 and children over 14 and adults.

The mission : Imagine the vehicle from the year 3000. No constraints or limits. Be careful, it is obvious that the model must be made exclusively of LEGO bricks and that your vehicle must be a real creation. No "modification" of an existing set or obvious pumping of the creation of others.

To participate: You will need to bring your creation on Sunday September 13 before 11:00 a.m. at the exhibition site. All participating models will be exhibited and a jury will designate the winners of this competition, the motivating endowment of which can be found below:

If you have nothing planned for the weekend of August 22/23 and you want to share your passion for LEGO, the association G 'La Brique is organizing its annual exhibition in Saint-Berthevin (53940, not very far from Laval in Mayenne).

This association, which is very active throughout the year with young and old alike through numerous activities, now needs you: There are still a few places available to exhibit your creations and the organizers will obviously take care of you. to welcome you.

If the adventure tempts you, you can contact the organizers via the facebook page of the exhibition or directly by email to glabrique@gmail.com.

The exhibition promises to be interesting and many activities (raffle, competitions) are planned throughout the weekend.

This is the last exhibition before the start of the school year if I believe the calendar that I try to keep up to date, one more reason to take advantage of your vacation to meet LEGO fans.

It's rumored season and the expected sets references for 2016 are fueling discussions. After the full list of Star Wars sets for the first half of the year, here's some info on the new DC Comics releases expected in the coming months.

On the one hand, we are predicted to have an exclusive set (Direct 2 Consumer) with a Batcave based on the Batman 66 TV series: 76052 Batman Classic TV Series Batcave. No public price or precise description for the moment.

Remember, LEGO had already made a remarkable foray into this kitsch and cult universe with the exclusive set sold during San Diego Comic Con in 2014. This same set containing a Batmobile accompanied by Batman and Robin could also foreshadow a sub-theme coming in the Marvel and DC Comics ranges: There is a lot of talk about the upcoming Marvel and DC Comics references announced for the retail price of € 9.99 and some believe that they could be sets of the type "Racers", containing a character and a mini-vehicle.

I see it as a Marvel and DC Comics-style variation of the principle of Microfighters from the Star Wars range, the third wave of which is also expected in early 2016 with in particular the reference 75127 The Ghost based on the Star Wars Rebels animated series. A Chibi version of this ship was marketed in 2014 at San Diego Comic Con and Fan Expo in Canada.

Another DC Comics reference expected in the coming months: The set 76053 Batman Gotham City Cycle Chase. We do not yet know anything about the contents of this box, the public price of which was unveiled by Amazon a few days ago: 24.99 €.

Finally, for the Ninjago range, a dozen references bearing the mention "ninjago movie"are announced (70606 to 70617). It is difficult to know if these boxes will actually be marketed in 2016 and I remind you that the release of the film, initially scheduled for 2016, has been postponed to September 22, 2017.

For those interested, a list of sets in the range "Seasonal"is also available. We find there in bulk the exclusive sets traditionally offered or sold by LEGO for the end of the year celebrations as well as the references that will probably join the micro-modulars already distributed by Toys R Us during the operation. Bricktober.

If you are a fan of Star Wars and derivative products based on the franchise which will resume service on December 18 at the cinema, you probably already know that Friday September 4, 2015 is the day chosen by Disney to launch on a scale world an unprecedented marketing and commercial operation pompously named "force friday".

From midnight, it will therefore be possible to spend your money on products derived from the film. Star Wars: The Force Awakens. No need to have seen a movie to afford a souvenir, now we do the opposite ... LEGO will obviously be there with seven boxes that should be on sale from D-Day on the LEGO Shop and in the LEGOs Blinds. Those in a hurry will be able to treat themselves and parents who are wondering what to offer for Christmas will have nearly four months to organize themselves and put a Millennium Falcon under the Christmas tree.

Unfortunately, it's still unclear whether this massive launch will be an opportunity for the most die-hard fans to be rewarded for their readiness to spend their money. LEGO has not yet announced any promotional offer specific to this force friday, although I hope that we will at least have the right to an exclusive polybag for the occasion ...

Nothing either from the side of the French brands specializing in toys. While Toys R Us USA is currently communicating extensively on this operation which will take place in less than a month, with an exclusive brick and LEGO Star Wars poster offered to the bravest who will be there at midnight, the merchants of France are still strangely silent. .

And you, what are you going to do on September 4th? Will you be in front of your screen from 00:00 to acquire the new LEGO Star Wars sets? Who will pay more than 600 € to afford the entire new wave of sets?
